Our Fishing Industry.
From Saturdays Daily.J

Il iOhA . b~iN-J
Capt. John F. Mcdonald and wife ar
rived yesterday from Gloucester, Mass.
Capt. Mcdonald was interviewed by an
ARGUS reporter, and said he had come to
Puget Sound. He belongs to the party
whose principal manager and nonied
man is Capt. Jacobs. The latter paid a
visit to the Sound some months ago on a
tour OF investigation, and was go well
pleased that he returned east with a de-
termination to remove his fishing busi-
ness to this coast. Two schooners have
already been sent, of which mention has
been made in these columns. AS they
will not arrive here for some time, how
ever, Capt. Mcdonald will charter
suitable vessel for immediate use. The
company will turn its attention mostly
to halibut and Goldfish. Our halibut
banks will be sounded, and the fish will
be.taken with travis. Arrangements are
already made for sending halibut east,
packed in ice, in large quantities. AS
this industry is in its infancy, and there
Is an unlimited prospect for development.
VIC hail the advent of experienced fisher
men with capital and appliances as the
dawn OF new era for Puget Sound.
1t is significant for Port Townsend as a
distributing point that the headquarters
of the industry will be here. 1t is prob
able that Capt. N. L. Oliver of this city
will be employed in locating the basis
of operations and arranging the details
of the business.

That "HaIpractice.r

Our attention has been called to a cor
respondence of the Seattle P.-I, wherein
imputations are cast upon the character
of DR.. G. W. Vail of Port Angeles, IL
which it was said that evidence was in
troduced before the gland jury charging
the Doctor with seduction and abortion
Naturally, in such serious matters, affect
ing the personal and professional stand
ing of physician, there would be some
anxiety to know the facts DR.. Vail is
here, and has been attending court in
| answer to a charge of having practised
medicine without having his diploma on
record in the county auditors office as
required by our territorial statute. His
case has been continued. AS to the
other foul charges, we have seen writ
ten statement signed by two members of
the grand jury stating positively that
they are utterly false ard groundless.
In the Cooperative colony at Port
Angeles there is q provision whereby q
committee of investigation shall examine
into each case where member is charged
with misdemeanor of any kind. Such
investigation was had in DIR. Wallis case,
and the following report will show how
completely lie was vindicated. We deem
it but justice to an apparently maligned
and injured gentleman to make the
whole matter public. There is evi-
dentIy an effort being made by designing
members of the colony tn besmirch DIR.
Wallis character because he stands IN
their way:
PoRT ANGELES, w. T.,
October &c, 1887.
After investigation of the reports that
DR.. Vail had committed malpractice on
Mrs Laud and Mrs. Hoffman, we find
according to information received, that
DR.. Vail has done as well as any physic-
ian could have done, although Mr.. Laud
thought the Doctor might have visited
his wife once more, while the Doctor as
serts that the visit wonld have been un-
necessary as the patient was beyond re-
covery.
AS regards the ISLANDERS reported, we
find that they are groundless, and some
we consider attempts at blackmail, IN
less it is careless tattle from mouth to
mouth. irrepairable injury is done to
persons character, which surely exists in
the case OF DIR. Vail.

made for men going in debt, surely
none can be offered for their living in
dirt. Soap and water are cheap and
brushes and brooms are not very ex-
pensive. The late Rev. DIR. George
Crown used to say: There can be no
religion without soap" Dirt and piety,
like oil and water, will not mix.
Know we not" says the apostle,
that We are the temple of God and
that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?
If any man defile the temple of God,
him shall God Destroy" Hence we
are exhorted to" cleanse ourselves from
all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, per-
fecting holiness in the fear of God"
True religion will make a man clean
inside and out, in soul and body. The
"relgion of dirt" both in practical
and philosophical forms, should be re-
jected Cleanliness and piety go to-
gether. But it is easier to keep out of
debt and dirt than it is to keep out of
the clutches of the devil. He is a willy
foe and assaults us by force and fraud,
as a roaring lion and as an angel of
light, and we should beware of his de-
vices. But, after all, he is a cowardly
foe, and if we do not give place to him,
but resist him, steadfast in faith, he
will turn his tail and flee from us.
Never reason with him, for he will de-
ceive you. Never believe anything he
says, for he is a liar from the beginning.
Remember, then, that you cannot be
too careful to guard against debt, dirt

Rock Of Ages.

OF the myriads of people who are
lovingly familiar with that noble gospel
hymn, Rock of Ages which for one
hundred ten years has had prominent
place in every collection, few are aware
of the deeply interesting fact that its
author, Augustus Toplady, after having
for years attended the means of grace
in various churches in England, was
brought to Christ in barn in ireland,
where an illiterate poor man, scarcely
able to spell his own name, was preach
ing on Ephesians ii: 10" Made nigh
by the blood of Christ" And what
encouragement there is in this Won
derful circumstance for all those who
are disposed to despise the day of small
things! Simply to thy cross cling"
was the trustful expression of the re-
deemed soul in the Ballynaslaney barn !;
and the words have echoed in thou
sands of hearts year by year since, and
doubtless will continue to be utterances
of loving, child-like faith until the
Church militant is merged into the
Church triumphant.-Erchdnge.

LincOIn's Kindly Nature.

Otherwise his life at this time differed
little from that of ordinary farm-hands.
His great strength and intelligence
made him a valuable laborer, and his
unfailing good temper and flow of rude
rustic wit rendered him the most agree
able of comrades. He was always
ready with some kindly act or word for
others. Once he saved the life of the
town drunkard, whom he found freez-
ing by the roadside, by carrying him
in his strong arms to the tavern and
working over him till he revived. 1t
is curious fact that this act of COM
mon humanity was regarded as some
thing remarkable in the neighborhood;
the grateful sot himself always said,
" 1t was mighty clever of Abe to tote
me so far that cold night" 1t was
also considered an eccentricity that
he hated and preached against cruelty
to animals. Some of his comrades re-
member still his bursts of righteous
wrath, when boy, against the wanton
murder of turtles and other creatures.
He was evidently of better and finer
clay than his fellows, even in those
wild and ignorant days.-1he Century.

Disease i'm Closed Houses.

Some of the most eminent physicians
of Montreal say that great many
women and children have been at
tackled after their return from their
summer rests, whether at the seaside
or inland, with typhoid and malarial
fevers and diphtheria. There are
many such cases in which the patients
are in imminent peril at present. The
origin of these diseases is a mystery
even to medical experts, as those who
are suffering reside in well severed
and properly ventilated houses. A
prominent surgeon, when asked his
opinion of the cause, could attribute it
to nothing but shutting up the houses
while the residents were absent, thereby
making the interiors damp and I'M
wholesome. Many parents have had
the atiliction of losing children, some
two or three, by the fatal epidemic of
diphthera, which has never been so
prevalent as this year. Typhoid fever
has also been greatly on the increase.
If closed houses breed disease, may not
closed rooms in occupied houses do the
same? There is no doubt of it; and
these closed rooms may very fire.
quently give rise to diseases whose
origin puzzles us.-Herdld Of Health.
